UCF commencement speaker Gloria Caulfield criticised over Tavistock ties
Gloria Caulfield, Vice President of Strategic Alliances at Tavistock Development Company, delivered the University of Central Florida Spring 2026 commencement address on May 8, 2026. Caulfield oversees health and medical partnerships and business development for Tavistock’s Lake Nona community, and her remarks appear at the 1:21:09 mark of the full commencement video. Her selection as a commencement speaker drew criticism because Tavistock is a major Florida real estate and health-innovation developer, raising questions about whether a public university should host a corporate development executive.
She's not a college administrator - tho administrators did invite her to speak - she's works a big Florida development company as the VP of "Strategic Alliances" whatever that is
